HIPPY shared a wonderful moment yesterday during the graduation of the Bridge at Lake Worth West Summer Reading Program. Congratulations to the entire BLWW staff, all the volunteers, and especially to all the families who participated over the past six weeks! You, parents and children, did it—and as Dr. Seuss says…“The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you’ll go.”
— Dr. Seuss

Hi, my name is Odilia Gonzalez. I appreciate the HIPPY program; it has helped me tremendously. I have been with the program for five years. My children love the HIPPY activities. The HIPPY program is amazing!
I enjoy reading books and doing projects with my kids for bonding time. My children will excel because of the HIPPY program. I am also grateful to our home visitor, Maria Perez, for her teachings and patience. She is very attentive! God bless her and the HIPPY program.
